1954 Map of Fivay

About this map

The Pithlachascotee River and the upper reaches of the Anclote River define this mid-century landscape in western Pasco County. This 1954 survey captures a rural Florida interior dominated by an intricate network of cypress ponds, sloughs, and small lakes like Moon Lake and Crews Lake. The settlement pattern is sparse, concentrated at rural crossroads and along the Seaboard Air Line railroad. Small community hubs are marked by Greenfield and Gowers Corner, providing a record of the region before the rapid suburban expansion of the later 20th century.
